The Whistler Municipal Hall is an existing three-level City Hall located at 4325 Blackcomb Way, Whistler, BC. To increase the level of fire and life safety in the building, 5 mitigating features are proposed.
To improve the level of fire and life safety in the original municipal hall, several protective measures are proposed throughout the building, which include the following:
- 45 Minute Floor Separation: Level 3 office glazing to be replaced with wired glass.
- Sprinkler Protecting Levels 1, 2, and 3: Sprinklers will be installed on Levels 1, 2, and 3 of the
original municipal hall to improve the existing roof rating and address the current exit
arrangement on Level 3. - Spatial Separation: A water curtain will be installed along the interior of the west exterior wall,
supplemented by the addition of non-combustible cladding to improved fire protection. - Protection of Exit Facilities: A water curtain will be installed on the interior side of the unprotected
opening, which exposes the north external stairway and south accessible entrance ramp.
Note: Updated with Addendum #1 (see below).
